Announcing a New Edition of Law and Critique

The edition contains a timely supplement on the role of law in the current refugee displacement crisis, authored by School of Law staff.

The latest edition of Law and Critique (vol 27, issue 1, 2016) has been published. The journal, which has a long association with the School of Law at Birkbeck, includes a supplement critically examining the role of law in the current refugee crisis.

The authors set out to demystify the legal, political and economic discourses that the European Union has used to describe the refugee crisis; and also address the way the public engage with this humanitarian, man-made disaster.

Established in 1990, Law and Critique has been published for over 25 years and is the leading international journal of critical legal theory, adopting a critical approach to law, jurisprudence, and social and political issues.

The latest edition of Law and Critique is available here. Copies are available on most library databases for students and academics to access.
